This is an original zinc identification tag worn by a US POW (Prisoner of War) held in a German Stalag (Prison Camp) during WWII.  This tag is for Stalag XIIIA located in Bad Sulzbach, Germany and was a camp for enlisted men.  Interestingly, Stalag XIII was the fictitious camp for Hogan’s Heros and not the same camp as Stalag XIIIA.

The tag reads:

Kr. Gef. Lager XIIIA

Nr. : 84639

Price: SOLD
